Re: [misterhouse-users] MH locking up under Linux

[Matthew W. <mr...@ya...>]

Bruce,

As far as I can tell, the pauses are infinite.  Misterhouse nevers exits this 
state, only a restart will recover.  I have received a recommendation to add 
some watchdog code so that I can automatically restart when this state is 
detected.  I'll do that and have an e-mail sent to me when it occurs.

If I get any more insight into this, I'll let you know.
